  <div>
   <p>Service level agreement (SLA) is a set of configurable data protection policies that define rules for data protection and copy retention. These policies are associated with an environment to implement protection.</p>
   <p>To simplify data protection configuration, the <span>product</span> provides users with three types of preset SLAs: Gold, Silver, and Bronze. For example, users can select Gold SLA for protecting data of mission-critical services and Bronze SLA for protecting data of web servers.</p>
   <p>In addition, to meet enterprises' different data protection requirements for various environments, the <span>product</span> allows users to customize SLAs.</p>
   <div class="section">
    <h4 class="sectiontitle">Preset SLAs</h4>
    <p>The preset SLAs in the system can be applied to all application types. Each preset SLA defines the backup frequency, backup window, and first execution time of a backup job.</p>
    <p><a href="#EN-US_TOPIC_0000001792389488__en-us_topic_0000001170622238_table179754488191">Table 1</a> describes the preset SLAs.</p>
    <ul>
     <li><span><strong>Backup Frequency</strong></span>: indicates the first backup time and the interval at which the backup is performed.</li>
     <li><span><strong>Copy Retention</strong></span>: indicates the duration for retaining a copy.</li>
